Know before you buy
Adjusting the RPM between 800 and 1800 allows you to manipulate the particle distribution of your grind. Lower speeds typically produce fewer fines, which can help clarify flavors in pour-over, while higher speeds can be used to experiment with different extraction profiles for espresso.
Yes, the stepless micrometric adjustment provides 90 settings, giving you the granular control needed for dialing in espresso while still offering enough range for coarser methods like French press.
The grinder is engineered to retain less than 0.1g of coffee, meaning you get out almost exactly what you put in. This is ideal for single-dosing, as it prevents stale grounds from previous sessions from mixing with your fresh beans.
The plasma generator significantly reduces the static charge that typically causes grounds to cling to the chute and exit area. While some minor stray particles are normal with any grinder, this feature keeps your workspace much cleaner than standard models.
The Diamond-Like-Carbon (DLC) coating is exceptionally hard and wear-resistant, designed to maintain its sharpness and geometry much longer than standard steel burrs. It is an excellent choice for home users who prioritize long-term consistency.
The footprint is quite compact at 200mm by 100mm, making it a great fit for smaller coffee stations. At 330mm tall, it should easily slide under most standard kitchen cabinets.
